This past Sunday, Sharon led the group through Squirrel Hill in search of festive and scary Halloween decorations. Coffee was a bit abbreviated (got to be productive with that extra hour), so I didn't catch any endorsements.
This Sunday, Michele offered to lead a very special run in Braddock. Park on Braddock Avenue near the intersection with 11th Street. Braddock Mayor John Fetterman and his wife Gisele will host coffee at their home afterward. This is a great opportunity to learn about this evolving borough and ask questions of a 2016 Democratic candidate for the U.S. Senate. Below is a note from Michele. She added that we can donate anything to the Free Store in addition to the specific items listed:
"Since Gisele and John have so graciously offered to host coffee, I am hoping that our running group can again help support the FreeStore. While shopping over the next two weeks, and remember the upcoming run, can you please make a feminine hygiene product, diaper of any size or formula purchase to donate. Gisele will be so happy and grateful.
"Furthermore! please know that when Gisele offered to host coffee, she made NO MENTION of asking for a FreeStore contribution! This is my idea completely and no one should in any way feel obligated to donate. We are a fortunate group of means. A this is a small donation to us but can be a "lifesaver" to someone in need.
"Hopefully the weather will cooperate and we will have a lovely morning. For those who do not remember, it is necessary to drive all of the way through Braddock and park around Edgar Thompson."
